Have you ever read F. Scott Fitzgerald's The Great Gatsby and wished you could be invited to one of Jay Gatsby's parties? Now is your turn to step inside the novel and live out your wildest fantasies, as the immersive theatre adaptation of The Great Gatsby is back in London.
Alexander Wright adapts and directs The Great Gatsby play in London. Wright teams up with Olivier Award-winning producers Louis Hartshorn and Brian Hook for The Great Gatsby, who later collaborated on the immersive adaptation of The Wolf of Wall Street. But the champagne has flowed through The Great Gatsby for many years, and is currently the longest-running immersive production of its kind in the UK. Make sure you see The Great Gatsby in London before it closes in January 2023.
If you're expecting to sit and watch The Great Gatsby calmly, then think again. Audience members will be invited to visit breakout rooms during the show, allowing theatregoers to discover more about the F. Scott Fitzgerald characters. But whatever you see during The Great Gatsby, you're in for a jazzy treat.
The Great Gatsby is an immersive play that's inspired by the seminal twenties novel of the same name. During the show, you'll meet Jay Gatsby, a millionaire who has become the talk-of-the-town thanks to his lavish, indulgent parties. But underneath all the bright lights and action, the alluring mystery of Jay Gatsby remains.
Throughout The Great Gatsby, audiences are able to speak to Gatsby himself, discovering what goes on in West Egg. But it's not all about the host though, as The Great Gatsby celebrates all parts of the Roaring Twenties. Red-hot jazz and syncopated rhythms, check. Charlestons and lindy-hops? Check. Moonshine? Well, it is the Prohibition era after all. And as far as theatre invites go, The Great Gatsby is the hottest ticket in town.
F. Scott Fitzgerald wrote The Great Gatsby. The American novellist's works typify the 1920s Jazz age in the United States, and The Great Gatsby is said to be Fitzgerald's most famous work.
